Here’s what it looks like when a purchase order is converted into a clean, editable spreadsheet in SendItSheets.
What types of PDFs can you convert?
SendItSheets is built for business documents, especially those with structured tables and financial line items. If it has rows, columns, and totals, it probably belongs here.
- Invoices (vendor, utility, SaaS, marketplace, and more)
- Purchase orders from retailers and distributors
- Bank statements and account summaries
- Credit card statements and expense reports
- Receipts and reimbursement documents
- Shipment reports, packing lists, and bills of lading
- Operational reports and internal dashboards exported to PDF
- Scanned or photographed documents with visible tables
Need to go deeper? You can also use specialized flows like invoice-to-Excel or purchase-order-to-Excel for even better accuracy as we roll out format-specific extractors.
How to convert a PDF to Excel
Converting a PDF to Excel with SendItSheets only takes a few steps.
- Sign in and open the PDF to Excel converter.
- Upload your PDF, drop in a folder, or select multiple files at once.
- Choose your output format: Excel (.xlsx) or CSV.
- We detect tables, headers, line items, and totals automatically.
- Download a clean spreadsheet for each file, or one combined sheet.
No manual column fixing, no retyping line items, and no guessing which number belongs in which cell.
Why SendItSheets works better than free tools
Free PDF to Excel converters are fine for simple tables, but they quickly fall apart on real-world business documents. Most of them:
- Break multi-line descriptions into separate cells or merge entire columns.
- Ignore totals or fail when pages contain multiple tables.
- Don’t support large batches of PDFs at all.
- Require you to upload sensitive financial data to unknown servers.
SendItSheets uses document intelligence to understand structure instead of guessing. That means better extraction for invoices, purchase orders, and statements where every line item matters.
Who uses SendItSheets?
Teams use SendItSheets anywhere they’re tired of retyping numbers from PDFs into spreadsheets:
- Accountants and bookkeepers converting client invoices, statements, and receipts into Excel.
- E-commerce and marketplace sellers importing vendor POs and invoices into their reporting tools.
- Finance and AP/AR teams extracting totals, taxes, and line items to reconcile faster.
- Operations and logistics teams tracking shipments, costs, and purchase orders at scale.
Once documents are in Excel, teams plug the data into BI tools, ERP systems, QuickBooks, or just use formulas and pivot tables directly.
Security and data protection
PDFs often contain sensitive financial data. SendItSheets is designed with that in mind:
- Documents are processed over encrypted connections and stored using 256-bit encryption.
- You can configure whether files are retained for history or auto-deleted after processing.
- Data is never sold or shared with third parties for advertising.
- Workflows are suitable for finance, accounting, and operations teams who need to protect client data.
If you have stricter requirements or need a custom data retention policy, reach out and we can walk through options.
Why PDF to Excel is harder than it looks
When you see a table in a PDF, your brain instantly recognizes rows, columns, and headers. But to a computer, there's no table there at all—just text fragments positioned at specific coordinates. The PDF format was designed for printing, not editing.
That's why copying and pasting fails so badly. The text comes out jumbled, columns merge together, and numbers end up in the wrong cells. Even dedicated tools like desktop PDF editors struggle because they're essentially guessing where one column ends and another begins.
How accurate extraction works
SendItSheets uses advanced document intelligence to understand structure, not just read characters. It recognizes patterns like “this is a line item description,” “this is a unit price,” and “this column header applies to these cells below.”
For scanned documents, OCR extracts the text first, then the same structural analysis applies. The result is a clean spreadsheet where the data actually makes sense: numbers formatted as numbers, dates as dates, and totals ready for your formulas.
What you can do after conversion
Once your data is in Excel, it's truly yours to work with. Sum columns of invoice amounts. Build pivot tables to analyze spending by vendor. Create charts from months of bank statements. Import directly into your accounting software or ERP. The tedious manual entry is gone, and you jump straight to the analysis.
